The risk of systemic absorption is greater in the area of the face. Corticosteroids have anti-inflammatory and anti-proliferative effects and for that reason, they are administered in cases of eczema and dermatitis. However, their action has to be limited to the affected skin areas (the target organ) and not the systemic organs. The skin of the face is not as thick as on the rest of the body, so applying the corticosteroid cream on this area increases the risk of the absorption of the drug in the systemic circulation.

Some Eukaryotic cells have internal structures that are able to use photosynthesis to convert light energy into chemical energy
grigory [225]

Answer:

The correct answer is the letter b. The endosymbiotic event that brought chloroplasts into Eukaryotic cells actually happened after Eukaryotic lineages diverged so many lineages never actually possessed chloroplasts

Explanation:

The plastid is an organelle linked to membarna found in the cells of eukaryotic organisms, which contains pigments used in photosynthesis. Some eukaryotic organisms over time have inherited the ability to photosynthesize from cyanobacteria by secondary endosymbiosis or ingestion, and are able to capture and sequester photosynthetic cells and chloroplasts, this process is known as kleptoplasty.
